the revision wave only hit one of my local stores....i counted myself lucky i snagged an electro. I might wait for white costume iron fist if i cant find green costume IF.

Venom, Carnage, Vulture, Doc Ock, Hobgoblin, Scorpion, Green Goblin, & Rhino make eight ;)

Would you want to be on a team with Carnage?!!?
He's just there 'cause no one has the balls to tell him to leave.


They'll slowly back away and run for it, first chance.

I found the revision wave at Walmart this morning and got myself an Electro. They also had an Iron Fist, a couple Guardians, a couple Ast Wolvies, a Darkhawk, Ultrons, Rogers, Doom, Doc S, Capt Marv, Namor, and a few Spidey women.

Good point. I'd take off in a heartbeat.

ok guys, got a problem with locked up joints;

jsut recently bought a MU goliath(hank pym) and the ball swivels at his thighs are locked up, meaning he wont be able to raise his legs or kneal. ive tried the hot water method and a liberal amount of wd-40. an suggestions?

Went to Toys R Us today- nothing new or worth buying and laughed like a madman st their patheric attempt to sell the flop Pirates of the Carribbean figures for $7.99 each!
Gee, it's been almost a year with no sales...lets jack the prices back up from $4.99 to original (inflated) retail!

Then at target I saw a ton of comic packs but the Power Man pack was the most recent.
Lotta re-released Sabertooth packs for some reason.

Looking for custom fodder, I saw the Mortal Kombat figs and the damndest thing- the ultra crappy, poorly painted original series figs were, I shit you not, $14.99 and the later (better sculpted and painted but still pretty poor) figs of Scorpion and Sub Zero were on a seperate peg for $9.99.
WTF?!?

Saw the Street Fighter two packs- all suck bigtime! Not worth custom fodder- no clear energy accesories like I hoped for either.
Disapointing. Same price as a MU comic pack-$14.99

Managed to score the new ANH Luke- he's got the perfect Quasar custom head!

Also saw the big Gears of War fig- looks great! Not my thing, but still...

Awesome haul!!!

I'm getting lazy and I know my walmarts don't carry crap in the MU line. Just called one of them, and they said it doesn't even look like they're going to be carrying any of them...I was like "what?"...amazed.

yeah one of my local ones doesn't carry any...then another one carries everything

None of my Walmarts within about a 20-30 minute drive carry MU, but all the ones further out in other parts of town carry them. It's so lame. But the one closest to me did get the Ultimate Gift Sets for some reason. I snagged one the day they went on the shelf. Two days later, all gone. You'd think they'd take that as a sign that hey, maybe people actually want to buy this stuff, instead of all the other crap that rots on the pegs for months on end. But if there's one thing I've learned in all my years collecting, it's that Walmart has no brain.

Any word on the second round of those TRU light up stand figures?

Nice find. I'm still looking for Electro. My WM is full of MU and there isn't room for more figs on the pegs, so I don't think they will be restocking anything new in the near future.

Only a week til Christmas!!!! I can finally open the awesome figures my girlfriend has apparently found me. Then I can begin hunting again!!! :D

Found the new two packs for the first time! had to pass cause of paint apps though. ill just wait til they hit everywhere.

I'm still looking for a transparent mask Electro, in case anyone runs into one of those...

Sometimes that's good, they put what they have left on $2 clearance!

Which new ones? Wonderman?

Pretty disappointed with Mister Sinister, his cape is not glued into the figure. Though still a nice looking figure even though he's a remolded Colossus. :)

Latest Shoot: Thanks for looking.

Yes- she's this new wave- and comes with the electrical thingies.

It is the same face but with ROC Baroness hair

Here's my Marvel haul from the weekend. There's always good stuff popping up around Christmas.
